On every cPanel account, backup is made easy for all users.
You simply log in to the cPanel, and under the files segment, there is a BACKUP tab. Click on BACKUP > Download a Full Website backup >> Generate Backup >>> and allow the backup to finish generating; this depends on the number of files you have. Large files may take more time than the small ones. You can close the page if you cannot wait, and the backup will continue.
It will be in progress, and after the completion, click on the backup zipped file to download.
The zipped file can be moved and stored for future use as security for the site in case of any issue that requires a backup restore.
You can do the same for a migration from one server to another and upload the zipped file to the new server. After restoring, your site and files will be on the new server.
Note that you have to generate a new backup anytime you upload a new file to the remote server and have all your files backed up.
